Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this fine legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Goodlatte) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 2473, as amended. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill, as amended, was passed. The title of the bill was amended so as to read: ``A bill to direct the Attorney General to study issues relating to human trafficking, and for other purposes.''. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________
